Party of 5

We have been home since Friday afternoon and are trying to adjust to being a family of 5.  I really didn't think going from 1 to 2 was that bad so I was unsure what to think about going from 2 to 3. I will say it is a lot harder than I had really thought, but it could be because Emmersyn is still a baby herself instead of Teagan being 2.5 when Emmersyn was born. 
We left the house yesterday for the first time since we came home from the hospital, and Emmersyn probably left for the first time in a week since I don't allow others to drive her yet! HA. 
 
*Not sure why that indented, but can't figure out how to fix it*

We had Brennen's first doctor appointment yesterday at 1:30 so I thought it would be nice if we all went to lunch and then the doctor...you know, if you're gonna do it, do it right! The girls were great at lunch. I had managed to cram  put their carseats all in Matt's car the night before. Talk about tight fit! I do believe I will be getting a van sooner rather than later. We were probably a sight for everyone trying to get all the kids loaded and unloaded.
Brennen checked out great at the doctor! He is 7lb2oz now (7lb 8.8oz at birth) which is great.  They didn't measure him but I'm sure he didn't grow too much in a few days! Everything is looking good. He is thriving and happy so that means I am too!
I tried to find some Christmas outfits at Target for all of the kids since we are getting pictures done on Wed, but I couldn't find anything I liked.  I guess I will just be getting newborn pics for now and wait til a little later til I can go out and find something.  By the time we got out of the doctor, I was beat.  It was hot in the office plus Emmersyn doesn't like to be confined AT ALL so while we let her down to walk the office, we also held her more than she wanted.  And, well, Teagan is 3...enough said. She is awesome, but when she's done, she's done and by then end of the appointment, she was DONE! LOL
I see a lot of home time for me once Matt goes back to work Friday!
